Who Runs the Jessica Jones Twitter Account and Can I Buy Them a Drink?

Jill Pantozzi | January 26th, 2016

Someone recently asked Brian Michael Bendis, “Are you in charge of the Netflix’s Jessica Jones Twitter account?” He’s not, but I’d like to buy whoever is a drink.

Bendis, writer of [Editor’s Note: affiliate link] Jessica Jones: Alias Vol. 1 , replied on Tumblr, “i get this one a lot. i am not. i actually have no idea who is. but they are VERY good. the fan art is amazing!”

But that’s putting it lightly.

There’s a lot you can do with a Twitter account. I once made Pizza Hut cry, for instance. Pizza Hut is a brand, you see, and brands use Twitter a bit differently than other users. They can promote their latest product or article, they can utilize it for mainly customer complaints (like most airlines), interact with fans, or post topical pop culture jokes. But the Twitter account for Marvel and Netflix’s Jessica Jones, does all of that and takes it one step further by speaking in the character’s voice.

@JessicaJones isn’t doing that exact same thing but it is taking a page out of its book by giving Jessica a voice outside her 13-episode series. I don’t follow a lot of brand accounts because I try to keep my feed clear for my friends (plus my friends retweet the brands so I usually see them that way) but when “Jessica Jones” followed me I couldn’t help but feel a little flattered. Jessica doesn’t have many friends.
